Hi Jane
Still waiting too and understand where your coming from. But the advice given by everyone on this site is good, keep busy. Do you think you could have the kids help you with a big sort out to occupy the time, perhaps get some stuff together for a car boot or charity box. Or have a spring clean.
I'm sorry, but was I the only person in the world who used to love having the kids at home during the holidays? We used to have a great time. We would so something virtually everyday - and no, I am ot talking about expensive day trips to theme parks etc. We would go out on our bikes, have picnics (even indoors when it was raining), catch a bus to a nearby town and just explore, go for walks along the river, have board game championships, baking days, camps in the back garden, all sorts of stuff that didn't cost money.
I do sympathise with all the waiting for the visa,I really do as we are in the same boat. But don't sit around moping, get on and enjoy having your kids around you - trust me they are gone before you know it.

Hiya i think the waiting is sent to test us!!! i agree its so frustrating and friends and family just dont understand ,you tend that get'' not Oz again'' look off them ,hang on in there ,use these holidays to take the kids to places you may not see again,cause when you do get that e-mail or phonecall ,no matter how organised you think you are now ,it will hit you like a brick and you wont know were to start.Good luck you'll get there and trust me its worth the wait!!

Yes the waiting is the worst, but then you get it and time flys by like its going out of fashion so start packing those boxes.
Hope you hear something soon.

Hi, It's no help, but stargazer's right it will happen. The waiting is absolutely excrutiating though isn't it?
Interested to see your name, which visa are you going on? If OH is kiwi are you going on eligible kiwi spouse?
Good luck, try not to let the waiting get you down, hard I know.
